Toro Gluten-Free Baking Mixes

I received this email from Jenny Bosking of Tasteslikerealfood.com today and thought I would share this information before it is too late.

Dear Toro Customers:

It is with great regret that we announce the end of our distribution of Toro Gluten Free Baking Mixes in the United States. Toro recently changed their formulation of their mixes and we no longer feel the quality of the product is up to our standards. And as you as a celiac know, working with gluten-free flours can be difficult and frustrating. The new formulation has now completely changed the quality of our developed recipes that have been used to complement the different flours.

We have limited amounts of the “original” formula left and we would like to offer it to you at a deeply discounted price. All mixes on our website will now be $3.25 per bag with no limit. We encourage you to stock up on your favorites as they will no longer be available in the U.S. The flour’s expiration date is at the end of January 2010, but the mixes can be kept in the freezer to extend the shelf life and can be a great help to you during your holiday baking this year.

I thank you so much for your support of our products. I am heart-broken at the change of situation and will miss these mixes greatly. (I plan to fill a freezer myself. J) I consider so many of you my found friends during this business venture and I will miss my regular contact with you. Thanks for your business this last year and a half.

And welcome to my blog!
Whether you're here looking for advice on how to go gluten free (with delicious kid-approved recipes of course!), or to read some of the latest medical research on celiac disease and non-celiac gluten sensitivity...or even to read about one woman's rise from the depths of gluten-free despair to a place of downright enthusiasm, it makes no matter. The point is, you are here now so let's have some fun!
